Azzaro Wanted EDT

Introduction

Azzaro Wanted is the fragrance that redefined modern masculine elegance when it launched in 2016. Created by Fabrice Pellegrin and Olivier Cresp, this woody-spicy eau de toilette captures the spirit of an audacious, confident man — one who is simultaneously effortless and refined. The iconic gold barrel bottle has become one of the most recognisable vessels in contemporary perfumery.

Fragrance Journey

Top Notes: Lemon, Ginger, Lavender, Mint

Heart Notes: Guatemalan Cardamom, Juniper, Apple, Geranium

Base Notes: Haitian Vetiver, Tonka Bean, Amberwood

The opening is fresh and invigorating: lemon and mint create a bright citrus-aromatic burst, warmed immediately by ginger and softened with lavender. The fragrance then transitions into a spiced, slightly green heart built around Guatemalan cardamom — aromatic and exotic — alongside juniper's crisp pine quality and the unexpected freshness of apple. Geranium adds a rosy, earthy bridge into the dry-down. The base is where Azzaro Wanted reveals its true sophistication: Haitian vetiver is smooth and creamy rather than harsh, tonka bean adds a warm almond-like sweetness, and amberwood brings the whole composition to a satisfying, lingering close.

Performance

Longevity is solid at six to eight hours on skin, with moderate projection that keeps the fragrance sociable and approachable rather than overpowering. Sillage is pleasant and noticeable without dominating a room. Best suited to daytime wear and smart-casual occasions. Age range: 20 to 45. A genuinely versatile, all-season performer.

Best Occasions

Business meetings, daytime events, casual outings, weekend brunches, first dates and any occasion requiring a polished yet understated masculine presence. Its versatility makes it a reliable everyday choice that never feels out of place.

Climate & Wear Advice

Azzaro Wanted EDT is one of the most climate-friendly fragrances in the Azzaro range for warm climates. Its fresh, citrus-led opening and moderate projection make it ideal for warm weather. Apply three to four sprays for full daytime presence — at the wrist, neck and chest. In the humidity, the mint and lemon top notes perform brilliantly, giving an immediate sensation of freshness. During the dry season, the vetiver and amberwood base becomes more pronounced and adds welcome warmth to the cooler, drier days. This is a fragrance that truly works twelve months of the year in warm climates, from boardrooms to hot climates beach bars, making it an outstanding value choice for an everyday signature scent.
